After much ado, Google has finally unveiled their new 3-D playable labyrinth, Cube, a game that centers on the Google Maps function. We know, we know. A game about Google Maps? How fun could that be? Well, the answer is: pretty fun, at least if you like the classic version of labyrinth, where you guide a ball through a wooden maze. In the Google version, you use your cursor to guide a little ball through a map of a bit of the world, trying to get to your destination in the shortest possible time and making use of special Google Maps features like traffic advisories and bike paths. There are eight levels in all, and they are (of course) progressively more difficult as you advance. Click here to play, and let us know what you think in the comments! [via Gizmodo]
